(ot) selling cars on ebay

[mvanamburgh@charter.net (Mike VanAmburgh)]

Sheesh, it was just $25 to list and $25 more if sold just a couple 
years ago when I sold a car on eBay.  That's quite the increase. 
Anyway, I've read a way around paying the outrageous fee is to list it 
in the parts section as a 'normal' eBay auction.  I would just pay the 
$80 fees tho.  More people are likely to see your auction that way and 
won't be scared off by seeing a car listed as parts.
